Skyrim Fan-Made Video Shows Photo-Realistic Visuals

January 18, 2013 by Alex Co

Watch this Skyrim video to see how good the game can look.

Even in its current form and without being maxed out,The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim looks good. Heck, even on the PS3 and Xbox 360, Skyrim still looks good even if it's running outdated hardware.

But in this fan-made video by YouTube user SirCrest, he does a rather good job of showing off just how gorgeous Skyrim looks using the proper angles and things to focus on. In particular, the grass, leaves and other greenery look fantastic. 

The video might be a little slow-moving, but give it a watch still.

SirCrest has titled this video Episode 1: Dragon on the Knoll. I take it he has a few more planned and he did say that he'll list his PC rig in the next video.

So, what do you think? Can your PC make Skyrim look this good? I admit, whenever I see something like this, I hope that whatever the PS4 and Xbox 720 can pump out will trump this. Do you think it's plausible or am I shooting too low for next-gen?
